Last Updated 07 July 2015, 18:54 IST
The Indo-Swiss pair of Leander Paes and Martina Hingis produced a clinical performance to enter the mixed doubles quarterfinals at the Championships outclassing Artem Sitak of New Zealand and Anastasia Rodionova of Australia 6-2, 6-2.

The experienced seventh seeded pair needed just 48 minutes to outclass the Sitak-Rodionova team in straight sets to win the third round match.

The pair next faces the winner of the match between Marcin Matkowski-Elena Vesnina and Lukasz Kubot-Andrea Hlavackova.

Later in the day, Sania Mirza will also look to seal a quarterfinal berth in the mixed doubles with her Brazilian partner Bruno Soares. They face Croatian pair of Marin Draganja and Ana Konjuh.

Rohan Bopanna and Florin Mergea have their task cut out as they will fight it out against top seeds Mike and Bon Bryan for a place in the semifinals.

In the junior championship, 15th seed Pranjala Yadlapalli will take on American Michaela Gordon in the girls singles second round.

Sumit Nagal, who lost in the boys singles first round, will pair with Vietnam’s Nam Hoang Ly in the boys doubles opener against Alex De Minaur of Australia and Yosuke Watanuki of Japan.
